The Education Act 1964 (c. 82) was an act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It made provisions in two areas which were previously not permitted by the Education Act 1944 (7 & 8 Geo. 6. c. 31). These provisions included the setting up of Middle Schools, and the funding of education for pupils in Special Schools beyond compulsory school age.[1]

Subsequent developments

The whole act was repealed by section 582(2) of, and part I of schedule 38 to, the Education Act 1996, which came into force on 1 November 1996.[2]
